This might be a little personal, but I was wondering if any of you have problems with irregular cycles and/or infertility? I am starting to notice some overlapping problems (I guess that is the easiest way to explain it) with my cycles and my mood cycles. I know, I know, we are women! That's what happens, but this is different. Anyone else? Any thoughts?

I hit menopause way earlier than normal and I immediately had pretty much every symptom times 100. I wasn't on any meds at the time, went on hormones and that helped some. Then again, I thought I was normal before (and after) the menopause!

I take contraception pills, but I am not as regular as I would imagine I should be.
And my mood around the PMS point is TERRIBLE. Irritable and depressed. __________________ "I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed. Robert H.

Thanks! I am trying to figure out a connection. I am a mess right now, but I am pretty sure (hoping) that it's just pms. I hope I am not about to go down again. My face has broken out like a teenager during puberty, so I am crossing my fingers that my "little friend" shows up soon. I don't even want to go out. I feel so ugly right now.

I have had really heavy and painful periods until I had my daughter. I have a giant case of PMS. I had a couple of miscarriages but I believe that was due to damaged sperm from spermicide, not my hormones or disorder. Any hormonal birth control makes me really depressed, but my mood doesn't swing either.
I am afraid of meds that mess with my cycles or hormones. I want to finish having kids before I take something like that. __________________ "Unipolar is boring! Go Bipolar!"  Amazonmom is not putting up with bad behavior any more. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
